Maddux is 6 months

This past week Maddux turned 6 months old. My baby boy is growing up tooooooo fast! Just in the past couple of weeks he has started to get on all 4's and try and crawl. He has mainly gotten the leg part of it figured out but hasn't realized he needs to move his hands as well. So what happens when you move your legs but not arms when crawling?......FACE PLANT. Its not pretty people. I think he will get it soon enough. He is also getting alot better at sitting up on his own. I think he will pretty much have that conquered before the end of the week.That boy is also a great eater. In the past month he has eaten mac and cheese, a Logan's roll,a pop tart and some hamburger helper. Did I mention he doesn't have a tooth in his mouth?? He is also obsessed with trying to get MJ's sippy cup. When he does manage to get it, he goes to town drinking whatever she has in there. We took him to the pediatrician for his checkup and he stats are:

Weight: 16 pounds 11 oz (25-50th percentile)
Height: 27 and 1/4 inches (75-90th percentile)
He got 1 shot which I believe what his HIB. Speaking of vaccines, Matalie was exposed to chickenpox at church on Sunday and has not received her vaccine for it so we are on high alert for chickenpox for the next 2 weeks. The little boy who had it, had his vaccination but still managed to get it. He had no signs or symptoms of it at church. They showed up on him on Monday after he had already exposed all the kids in the nursery. Oh well, I guess we can go ahead and get them and get that out of our way.

Disclaimer* Matalie was 16 pounds 8oz and 28 inches long at 9 months!
